What it is

A YouTube summariser that knows who is reading.

Gistly is an AI YouTube video summariser for Android, built by OperateAI in Jaipur and live on Google Play since August 2026. You share a video from the YouTube app, Gistly reads it, and a summary arrives by email a few minutes later. Free for 10 summaries a month; Gistly Pro is ₹99 a month in India.

Best for

  • Founders and marketers who save more talks than they watch
  • Engineers and designers who want only the part relevant to their work
  • Students and learners who read faster in Hindi or Hinglish
  • Anyone deciding whether a 40-minute video is worth 40 minutes
What you get

Six things a generic summary never gives you.

Written for you

A 90-second setup asks what you do, what you are building and how deep you want to go. The same video gives a designer and an engineer two different summaries.

English, Hindi or Hinglish

Pick your language once. Every summary is written in it from the start, not translated afterwards.

Worth watching or not

Every summary ends with a verdict: watch the full video, or you already have what matters.

Remembers what you read

Later summaries stop re-explaining ideas an earlier one already taught you.

Inbox, push and in the app

The summary is emailed to you, a notification tells you it is ready, and it stays saved in the app.

Private by design

No ad tracking, no analytics kit, your content is never used to train AI, and you can delete your account and everything in it yourself.

FAQ

Questions people ask about Gistly.

Yes, to start. The free plan gives you 10 summaries and up to 5 hours of video every month, no card needed. Gistly Pro (₹99 a month or ₹999 a year in India) raises that to 100 summaries and 10 hours, with videos up to 3 hours long.

No. Gistly is Android only, on Google Play. There is no web version and no iPhone app.

English, Hindi or Hinglish. You pick one during setup and can change it in Settings. The summary is written in that language from the start, not translated.

Gistly writes for you: your role, what you already know and how deep you want to go. So the same talk gives a designer and an engineer two different summaries.

Up to 30 minutes on the free plan and up to 3 hours on Pro. A video YouTube will not let it read (private, removed, or with no spoken words it can read) cannot be summarised, and the app tells you so.

No. Gistly uses Google's paid AI service under terms where your content is not used to improve their products. Gistly also runs no analytics kit and no ad tracking.

Cancel Pro from Google Play under Subscriptions. Delete your account and everything in it from Settings in the app, or at api.operateai.in/delete-account. Deleting the account does not cancel a Play subscription, so cancel that in Play first.

Gistly is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by YouTube or Google.
